David began his career at the age of 16, working in Toronto's kosher restaurant scene. His love of food sent him to the Jerusalem Culinary Institute, where he received his chef's certificate. Following this, he graduated George Browns' Food and Beverage Management program. Immediately after completing his college studies, he made aliyah to Israel, the mecca of kosher chefs. After five years of working in some of Israel's best restaurants, including RYU of Jerusalem and Messa of Tel Aviv, David returned to Toronto with his wife Racheli and their daughter Ella. David's style of cooking is best described as clean, light, and modern with Israeli/
Mediterranean and Asian techniques and influences. His three years as a sushi chef are evident in his food presentation and finishing touches. Currently, David is Executive Chef of Hartmans’ and can be found in either of their two retail locations.
